She was probably too busy having sex with her boyfriend to notice...

Can you please tell Elisa Hahn, "kids" are goats. HAVE SOME RESPECT, this little boy has a name and is a beautiful "child". If Elisa wants to call her own children "kids" then fine, go ahead, that is if she has any now or ever has any. (There must be someone out there willing to knock-up Elisa, then her raggamuffins can go out next to the street also while she's off reporting the news.) Come to think of it, a family member of hers died in a similar manner, maybe that's why her reporting was so flip.

Does this child's parents and the little boy not deserve respect because they live in a trailer? Because he has a babysitter, rather than a high-priced daycare? For the record, the babysitter was reported to be in the shower when the child unlocked the screen and wandered off.

you must be the type that would babysitterr that would take your eyes off an innocent child that is only two and not old enough to be left alone(sara41). also I don't live in a trailer and I don't use daycares cant afford them. but I always made sure that I had someone I could trust and would not leave my child unnattended paper and not the babysitters. The babysitter should not even been dumb enough to think that two year can be left alone for even a moment. daaaaaa. way to go for the gentleman who save this child this innocent but curious child.

Sara41, Did you actually listen to the report before typing? She mentions the little boys name & refers to him as a little boy. I heard the term "kid" many times from the person being interviewed but only once by the reporter. I never heard anything that implied bias based on this taking place at a trailer. I think the story was pretty non-biased, even against the idiot who thought it was safe to leave a 2yr old child unattended. Whether it is a babysitter or daycare, both require a level of responsibility & Good judgement. I guess I am really confused what video you watched because nothing you said makes sense based on the one I saw.
